Average reference recording from the vagal nerve reveals an evoked indirect response [PDF]
, 2009 The vagal nerve conveys information from and to many organs, including the heart. The components of the compound action potentials (CAPs) recorded from the vagal nerve give information about the different fiber types present.

Selective stimulation of the ferret abdominal vagus nerve with multi-contact nerve cuff electrodes
Scientific Reports, 2021 Dysfunction and diseases of the gastrointestinal (GI) tract are a major driver of medical care. The vagus nerve innervates and controls multiple organs of the GI tract and vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) could provide a means for affecting GI function and ...
